Yes were smart, sleek and sexy but that does not mean we're not approachable. Yes, Jamaican sites abound but as far as things go, consider us the 'site next door'. Fromjamaica.com is the coveted platform that beams out 'Jamaican-ness' regionally and globally on the daily.
This platform was originally conceptualized after lengthy conversations with the now late Pauline Gray. At the time, late 2000, she was CEO of the Jamaica Exporters Association. Marc DM approached her with the concept, but it was way ahead of its time. The possibilities are now endless as we watch the digital divide fade to a mere dot of a factor. And so, here we are.
Now, as the premiere platform for Jamaican news, sports, culture, people and events, that doesn't mean that we dare forget what sets us apart. Even as some would like to think it's our white sand beaches, our sense of regionalism or our impressive tally of athletics medals, it's really the music.
From mento, folk, rocksteady, ska, dancehall, and roots reggae, diversity reigns. But if you are really allergic to 'cake soap' we also boast more wholesome offerings like Ska and Jazz if Toots Hibbert and Monty Alexander are more to your liking.
Our sense of community has never been lost and we definitely favor good family relations above all. Once you're here, become a member since we've got a feeling you might like having access to exclusive remixes, "soundboy" tunes, crisp and fresh music videos, thought provoking literary works and stuff too cool to mention here. You're welcome.
There is far more to fromjamaica.com than news and entertainment. As we are never ones to falter on our business ideals, you can buy almost 'everything' Jamaica is renowned for, right here in our store. Look out for this extensive music and art store featuring numerous independent Jamaican artists and artists from smaller, less well funded studios.
